Lowe's is closer to me than HD, so I bought 2 double bags last night. And yes, there was a big sign saying, "Limit 2".

Had to sneak them into the garage, as the wife seems to think we don't need any more charcoal. Of course, she is crazy. But since I usually use one of my two electrics, and I no longer use my offset anymore, I do go through less. I just can't seem to give up my old Weber kettle.

Just got 28 bags (14 twin packs) at Lowe's. The sign said limit 2 per customer but the manager said they had 50 pallets full and I could buy all I wanted. He offered to load a full pallet if I wanted it.

While I was at Lowe's, I bought a 2 lb. bag of Cowboy brand pecan chips. Went to use them for my wings, and as soon as I opened the bag I could smell and see mold! Returned them ok, but it sure put a damper on my smoke. Went with apple, instead.

I was in Lowe's last night and they had the double pack 20lb bags of Kingsford stacked all over the store still from the weekend. I asked the employee in the grill section if sale was still going on and he said no, but then he said if I pull up the weekly ad for HomeDepot on my smart phone and show the cashier at checkout they will price match to $9.98. Worked so easily. If you are pulling up the ad on your phone, go to Home Depot site then Weekly ad then type in charcoal in search bar and should get the ad.

Also- I then stopped by home depot on way home and they are only running the sale at my local HD until it is out of stock. So if you are in the neighborhood of a Lowe's you should be able to take advantage of this price match, or hit up a HD today for the $10 for 40lbs deal.
